    Made a short trip to Savannah with some out of state family and the first thing they wanted was some seafood. This place came highly recommended on yelp so we stopped in. The vibe was very cool. The nets on the ceilings, the murals, the subway tile...I really liked it. It was pretty empty when we go there so our party of 7 was seated right away. We were given menus and told to go up to the front to order. Hawk took our order and they were super awesome. Very knowledgable and helpful. I got an oyster po boy with sweet potato fries, my mom and aunt got shrimp salads, my brother and sister got the shrimp tacos, and we got hush puppies, calamari, and a couple of clam chowders to share. (My little cousin got chocolate cake for lunch. That's it. The perks of traveling with your grandparents! LOL) Several of us also got adult beverages...they had a decent selection to chose from. My po boy was really good and the sweet potato fries were excellent. The shrimp salads and tacos were enjoyed as well. The hush puppies and the BUTTER were amazing! I thought the calamari was just a little tough (but not the worst) and the clam chowder was thin...more of a soup. Overall we highly enjoyed our meal and would recommend this place if you would like some fried seafood!

    Seems like they're slicing scallops to make one go further.

    The quality of this place has gone downhill over the years. We visit Savannah every year and have made this place a staple every visit, but I think this time was the last. The prices have gone up and portions down. Not only that, but the quality of the ingredients seems to have gone down too. We did the Shack Attack and split it as we always have-- it seems like they're taking the scallops to a mandolin and slicing them into strips. Every scallop in our basket was about the thickness of a quarter. Unfortunately we won't be back.

    The seafood was very fresh. We went for lunch and weren't that hungry so we didn't order as much as we wanted to. Out of everything we tried, my husband's favorite was the corn. It was so good that we ended up ordering an extra side. Since it was lunchtime, it wasn't very crowded. We actually tried coming the night before around 7:30 pm but it was quite busy and we had to catch a 9 pm movie, so we didn't want to wait. The service was good, and all the staff were friendly. They explained how the ordering process worked once we were seated. The space was nice and the tables weren't too cramped together.

    Seafood boil!

    Loved our lunch. I will say as good as it was, I'm giving it 4 stars because I think the prices are high for order at a counter meals.

    Fried Fish Cone
    Michael N.

    We opted for fried fish here for lunch. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and very helpful. My wife loved her shrimp tacos, and my fried fish cone was unique, yet very delicious. There was a large amount of fish in my cone. It was very filling on its own. The coleslaw inside was spicy (had some tumeric flavors) and really counterbalanced nicely with the sweetness of the cone and the tanginess of the shack sauce. The location is casual and relaxed but clean and inviting. Many other diners were eating the low country boil or other fried fish. I highly recommend this for seafood while in Savannah.

    Fried Calamari Cone Boiled Red Potatoes

    Great food and fast service! Got the hush puppies, calamari cone and seafood boil with everything and added sausage. Food was absolutely incredible and tons of flavor, just wish the food came out hot or at least warmer. Love that the cone was sweet. Would recommend!

    Chloe M.

    Super tasty quick lunch while shopping in the historic district. Perhaps a tad on the top end price-wise but the portions are plentiful. Seafood was fresh and the smoked sausage was top tier. Our itinerary had a short window to eat and the fast casual service setup ensured we were able to make our meetup. Will definitely stop in again when in Savannah.

    Fried Shrimp Po' Boy & Crawfish Steamin Combo
    Claire H.

    Craving seafood? This is the place! They've been recognized in multiple channels like food network, so definitely take their word for it. My friend and I were lucky to not have a long wait. Once you get sat and decide what to order, you go to the counter to order. We went ahead and ordered the fried shrimp po'boy with sweet potato fries and crawfish steamed boil. The total came out to be around $40 with tip of course. The po'boy and fries were so flavorful; the seasoning was all there and so fresh. The crawfish was good too. It comes with potatoes and 2 corn on the cobs, but it was hard to get the meat out of the tail (I've been told that means it's not as fresh as it should be). But the seasoning was also there, and brought everything together perfectly! Service was good too, and the staff were very attentive and welcoming. Definitely worth the try!!

    Low Country Boil
    Jim C.

    Just a few doors down from Leopold's Ice Cream, this is the perfect spot for a low country boil. Packed with shrimp, beef sausage, potatoes and two pieces of corn on the cob. It's dripping with buttery spices but I he lemon pepper and Cajun seasonings are both pretty light. You can add cocktail sauce, tartar sauce and hot sauce and I'm sure you can request extra seasoning. It's a filling meal with just enough room for Leopold's to follow.

    Chicken tenders and sweet potato fries
    Rick P.

    Read about the "voted best low country boil in savannah. Had to find out. And yes. Definitely lived up to the name. 2 cobbettes of corn. Lots of shrimp and andouile sausage. Make sure it is deveined and tails off on the shrimp. Very good. Candyce had the chicken tender combo with the sweet potato fries. With hush puppies to share. Very good all around and worth the wait.

    The food was pretty decent for the price. I got the poboy and Cajun fries. The poboy could have had more sauce on the side and the fish needs more seasoning, other than that it was pretty good.

    Ask the Community - Savannah Seafood Shack

    Is there outdoor seating for people with dogs?

    Yes, when we were there they had two small tables outside for two people each. Two people were eating outside with their dogs and one of the workers even brought out a water bowl for the dog.

    Is this a sit-down restaurant with servers or just a place to get take-out?

    Sit-down, but pretty much no service. You stand in line to order at the counter, find a place to sit (or they might help you find a place to sit), and someone will bring your food to you. Think of Panera Bread.

    Do they have a raw bar?

    No. This is more of a fried seafood place.

It was giving chain restaurant a little more than I expected. We tried the grilled oyster sampler, and while they all looked slightly different, somehow they all tasted like variations of Rockefeller. I could not tell you which was which. The she-crab soup? Absolutely not. Zero flavor. I took one bite and sent it back, and I rarely send food back. The shrimp & grits were... interesting. Very sweet, very corn-forward, and the texture was more porridge/cream of wheat than the thick, savory grits I had in mind. Was it terrible? No. On a rainy day, I could actually see myself eating a bowl of it. But if you tell me shrimp & grits, my mouth has already prepared for something completely different. Now--the fried green tomatoes? THAT was the star. Crispy, topped with a little crab salad and this hot sauce that pulled the whole thing together. The crab cakes were pretty solid too, especially with the two sauces, and the collard greens were tender and well done. Overall, I'd come back for lunch, oysters, drinks and a few appetizers. But dinner reservation? I'm not jumping through hoops. Savannah has too many really good restaurants for that. 3/5 -- cute, fun, a few hits, but the food needed a little more love.

Been here for both dinner and lunch. All this said, I think my approach to this review is comprehensive. With regard to food, I think they have a decent (not expansive) selection of food, which I think lends itself to quality. They do most things really well. This said, I do think there is inconsistency based on staff at the restaurant. On one occasion they have accommodated a request, and on another I was denied the exact same request. I found this frustrating. On one occasion I've also seen management talk down to staff here, which is a big no no for me. All people (especially staff) are due respect and this rubbed me the wrong way. This was an isolated incident but it definitely made my dining experience uncomfortable. Especially because I was getting excellent service from the server!!! I've always had quality service from servers here. In the future, I would come to Rhett for convenience as a hotel guest (the hotel is lovely), but would likely not spend my money if I wasn't staying at the hotel. Overall- it's good food, decent ambiance... but there are soooo many good options in Savannah. You have to be exceptional to stand out in that city.

We decided to do a walk in and was quickly seated at the bar which has the full menu. The location is great and it's within walking distance of a lot of the other shops, restaurants, and bars. The building is really beautiful and has so much history. Downstairs has a cool dark and gloomy old vault with a full bar, has individual rooms, and there was a piano player and singer while we were there. The atmosphere was definitely my favorite part. The drinks at the downstairs bar were just okay. I ordered the Pink Lady and thought it tasted a little watered down. The food was delicious but portions are a little small. I ordered the shrimp and grits, which was an appetizer, along with the crab cake and fried green tomatoes. Those two filled me up. The shrimp and grits came with five shrimp, but they were tasty. The crab cake was also really good, while the fried green tomatoes were okay. My coworker ordered the chicken pot pie and really enjoyed it.

The only complaint we had which was a mistake that the server explained and apologized for, was when they put in the table. The order didn't go through because they assigned to the wrong table or didn't hit submit so we did wait a little bit for our food. But the restaurant made up for it. And our server was completely apologetic.

It's right in the heart of downtown off Congress Street and across from the Rail Pub. There is street parking, but being downtown, it can definitely be limited. I finally stopped in after dinner hours around 7pm on Friday. Since it was date night we ordered the raw tower, which comes stacked with everything under the sun: oysters, shrimp, snow crab, lobster and mussels. I also ordered scallops and asked if it could be prepared without butter because of my dairy allergy. The kitchen has no problem making them with olive oil instead. Super delicious! I enjoyed it so much that I came back the following weekend with friends. I made reservations online during happy hour (4-6pm) and we were lucky enough to be seated in the small back dining room tucked away behind the bar. Our server was wonderful and very attentive, and I especially appreciated that she actually paid attention to the allergy notes I included with my reservations. Of course we all ordered a dozen oysters each because they're $1 during happy hour and who can beat that? I ordered the scallops again because I liked them so much the first time, and around the table we had a mixture of lobster, mussels, dressed oysters, turtle cheesecake, finishing everything off with espresso martinis. Hands down delicious. The service was top-tier too. Our server never hovered, but somehow always checked on us at just the right time and made sure we had everything we needed.

Just flavorless and uninspiring. The crust and color on the chicken sandwich looked like I was about to bite into a life-altering morsel. But alas, I tasted chicken. And nothing else.

The whole place is designed to feel like the inside of a trailer--spray-painted antique chandeliers, old pictures of different trailer parks, and random little details everywhere. It's kitschy, but very intentional, and honestly pretty cool. We came in late after a 4h drive into town after work, and the staff was still super friendly and accommodating. No "we're about to close" energy, which I appreciated. We started with the creamy collard dip, which is basically their take on spinach-artichoke dip, but with collards. Really good. I do think the chips were a little too heavy for the dip--a thinner chip would've been perfect--but that's a small note. The chicken pancake tacos were probably my favorite. The chicken was fried perfectly and still really moist. And at this point, I'm convinced Savannah just knows how to cook chicken. Everywhere we went, the chicken was consistently good. My partner got the grilled apple pie sandwich, which has fried chicken, grilled apples and bacon. He's not even a big pork person, but that bacon was so crispy and the whole combination just worked. Even the waffle fries were good--crispy, fresh and actually seasoned. We had the Grateful Dead and Wicked Kiwi cocktails, plus a couple of shots, and the drinks were strong, good and reasonably priced. Honestly, I don't have a ton of notes here. It's not trying to be some elevated dining experience. It's just a really good late-night spot with good food, strong drinks, friendly service and a fun atmosphere. We sat inside because Savannah in August was not about to have us sitting on anybody's patio. Definitely recommend, especially if you're looking for somewhere to eat late. It was a vibe, the food was good, and it did exactly what it needed to do.
